FireIce

FireIce® is a dry powder that, when added to water, produces a firefighting gel that saps the heat and oxygen from a fire. Its uses include the following;

Fire suppressant. In addition to bushfires, it also extinguishes scrub, grass, structural, tire, motor vehicle, and other types of fires.

A burn barrier. When sprayed on a surface, the gel adheres to the burning material, cools the burning fuels, and rapidly suffocates the fire and prevents the fire from rekindling.

To retard fire. It is a medium-term retardant that protects structures. Simply spray on the structure, ie your home and surrounding bush to protect the structure from radiant heat and embers.

To create fire breaks. The product is used to create breaks in front of advancing bushfires.

Homeowners can apply FireIce as a barrier to their home via the FireIce HDU wand, The FireIce HDU wand is simply attached to a standard pressure cleaner and the homeowner is then able to coat their home and surrounding vegetation with FireIce for protection against radiant heat and ember attack for up to 3 days.

For firefighting units FireIce is simply added to the water tank or used with the FireIce inline inductor for larger firefighting appliances.

The easy-to-use gel is safe for firefighting equipment and is also inert and environmentally friendly. There is no need for expensive retrofits or harsh chemicals for washing down or cleaning up.
